William Peelle was a member of the Boykin Methodist Church located just outside Gibson, NC, in Marlboro County, SC. He is listed in a special publication of the Southern Christian Advocate, "The Boykin Centennial" for the 100th Anniversary of the church. Members of the church at that time included: James M. Gibson, Noah Gibson, Robertson Adams, Jeptha Adams, Ebenezer W. Goodwin, Giles Newton, Anderson Newton, Eli English, Rev. Andrew H. Adams, Rev. Cornelius Newton and William Peelle. The last named (William Peelle) could neither read or write at the age of nineteen years when he married but began to study, learned to read and write and has read the New Testament through one hundred and fifty eight times, word for word, since 1844. (Southern Christian Advocate, November 2, 1905).

William Peelle raised 16 children who were all born on the Peelle Farm just inside Marlboro County, SC on Adamsville Road (about 500 yards inside South Carolina), north of Highway 79. His home place was later called the Milton Peele Place. The house was accidentally burned. Nothing is left of his home place today except memories.
